[PATCH] Input: xpad - remove spurious events of wireless xpad 360 controller

Show all headers | View raw

From: Clement Calmels <clement.calmels@free.fr>

When powering up a wireless xbox 360 controller, some wrong joystick
events are generated. It is annoying because, for example, it makes
unwanted moves in Steam big picture mode's menu.

When my controller connects, this packet is received by the driver:
00000000: 00 0f 00 f0 00 cc ff cf 8b e0 86 6a 68 f0 00 20  ...........jh..
00000010: 13 e3 20 1d 30 03 40 01 50 01 ff ff              .. .0.@.P...
According to xboxdrv:
https://github.com/xboxdrv/xboxdrv/blob/stable/src/xbox360_wireless_controller.cpp#L118
this packet is only dumping a serial id and should not be interpreted
as joystick events.

This issue can be easily seen with: $ jstest --event /dev/input/js0
This patch only adds a way to filter out this "serial" packet and as a
result it removes the spurous events.
